It’s been quiet here lately.  It’s not that things aren’t happening, they very much are.  It’s just that they’re happening to other people and I don’t feel comfortable blogging about other people’s trials and joys – they are their stories to tell, not mine.

Time is steadily marching on though.  We’re getting rid of the highchair as we no longer need it.  The boy insists on sitting on a booster seat on a big chair now.  I’m proud of him and a little sad, I don’t know why this, over anything else we’ve got rid of lately, signifies growing up to me but it does.  I no longer have babies or toddlers, I have two children, one of whom will be 4 in December – where did the time go?

At least they’re still small enough to be tidied up when they’re in my way.

I’d just like to point out that they put themselves there.  There was no pushing, poking or unnecessary folding of small children carried out to get this picture.  Honest.
